some of you guys are probably aware that not all songs made decades ago are as innocent as they seem. In fact some old songs have some really dodgy lyrics.
I cant think of any examples myself, but I know this sort of stuff went on all those years ago.
so, list some old songs that you think have lyrics that aren't quite right. |

First song that comes to mind is My Sherona. Ever really listened to the words of that song?
This is probably not what you were thinking of though. :p |

| apparently "Brick House" is about girls with a nice booty. I didn't know that until I watched one of the multitudes of "I Love the 70s" marathons on VH1 :p |

| How long did it take for McCartney to admit what Lucy In The Sky was all about? |

| I heard that Rock Around The Clock wasn't really about rocking, but about flyfishing. |

Ask and you shall receive. It goes a little something like this...
My Sharona
by The Knack
Ooh my little pretty one, pretty one
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona?
Ooh you make my motor run, my motor run
Gun it comin' off the line Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up
Such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind...
Come a little closer hun
A-will ya hun
Close enough to look in my eyes, Sharona
Keeping it a mystery gets to me
Running down the length of my thighs, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up
Such a dirty mind
I always get it up for the touch
Of the younger kind.... |

wow... I couldnt even make out the lyrics (Because I have never been able to make out lyrics in songs) but:
I always get it up for the touch...
"Of the 'younger' kind"
hmmm.... yes... very dodgy indeed |

MacArthur Park is one of the greatest songs ever that was ruined by its third grade poetry lyrics.
I mean it: the lyrics are seriously seriously BAD. But the song is a gem. |
